high school thuggery

i found this just recently. pretty effed up what goes on with number 34. this guy should be banned from ever playing organized ball as he doesn't actually play basketball.
if that tub of lard tried this thug-ball stuff on me, he'd be crapping his teeth out after i rammed them down his throat with my fist!
34 belongs in jail, the refs should be banned from reffing again and the coach should be fired.

Re: high school thuggery

i would like to say that fouls number 2, 4 and 6 weren't that bad like hicks was saying. however, 1, 3 and 5 were pretty damn awful. in 1 and 3 he didn't even try for the ball, he just made sure to really clobber whoever had the ball.
number 5 was really sick, he once again made no effort for the ball, just grabbed the kid on his way up and slammed him to the court. you could cripple or even kill someone doing that.

Re: high school thuggery

he should of been thrown out on 3 and 5 should be suspended for awhile. That kid could of broke his neck on that play very dirty. How that is called a hold is beyond insane.

Nothing is that wrong on 2 and 6

but yes they need to start a new conditioning method 34 has some of the slowest foot speed I have seen and that is why he has to foul. He is always out of position with his feet because he is slow footed.

Re: high school thuggery

I would have seen #34 in the parking lot after the game if I was a player. Either he's a malicious little ******* or he's just the worst basketball player I've ever seen who has no idea what he's doing. I'm severely doubting it's the 2nd one, at least the no idea what he's doing part.

If I was a parent or coach, they would have had to remove me from the building after a couple of those plays because I'd have been screaming at the ref about what a piece of **** he is for allowing it.

If the kid is 18 years old, then legally he's not a kid, and he played like a dirty jerk. So, I don't really have any pity for him, but by the same token, I don't feel the need to go out and berate him.

In the parking lot after the game? And done what?

The problem is, this kid is at least twice the size of the kids on the other team. It's easy for us to look at it and say what we would have done, but playing in that game for those kids must have been unreal.

Re: high school thuggery

If I were the coach of the team that was getting manhandled like this, the referees probably would have thrown me out because I would have been irate. CYO ball in Indiana was pretty competitive when I was a kid and I saw fights between teams break out for much smaller offenses.

I'd have dropped him like a bad habit.

Yes, it's easy for me to say that. I played basketball everywhere when I was younger. Including at 30th and Fall Creek where I was the only white guy in sight. Once there when I was 18 years old and 6'2 or 6'3 and probably 175 pounds. There was a guy tall enough there I had to look up to, and much wider than me as I was a rail at the time. Being the only white guy, they stuck some scrub on me thinking it would be okay. They did it for several games until this giant gets mad and decides to guard me. Immediately he started throwing elbows at my face and just pushing me with both hands purposely.

Do you think I stood there? Hell no. It ended up stopping the game for a while as I went after him. The place was pretty split. A group that was impressed that I had the heart to go after him in the situation I was in, and his friends who wanted to jump me or worse. The day ended with him promising to go get a gun and shoot everyone. Everyone at that point scrambled to leave, and as I drove away he threw a beer bottle at my car. Much 'tougher' action than I saw out of him when I was in his face.

So yes, it's pretty easy for me to say, as I am not those kids and it's not my fault those kids are pussies.
